I'm a bioethicist/journalist/digital consultant/policy wonk with experience that spans from managing news products, to founding a startup, to reporting and editing, to researching humanity's next big thing: biological inequality.
I’m currently the Director of Communications at Concentric By Ginkgo, the biosecurity and public health arm of Ginkgo Bioworks.
I write about ethics and policy issues related to emerging biotechnologies, with a focus on the biohacker/Community Bio movement and assisted reproductive tech.
As a journalist and analyst, you can find me regularly in leading science publications and the mainstream press.
thinking critically about what’s coming
My approach to policy reporting is through a keen interest in human rights, because I believe it is the media's responsibility to contextualize the complex ethical issues facing our society with the advent of under-regulated and misunderstood biotechnology, and report objectively and accurately for the general public. That’s why my journalism has been focused on stories related to radical advances in science and technology, where innovation intersects with human rights, policy, and ethics.
In addition to more than a decade reporting and writing for a number of major national and international outlets, I completed my Master's Degree in Bioethics & Society at King's College London and have pursued scholarship on pressing bioethical issues, such as human enhancement, genome editing, access to healthcare, and do-it-yourself medicine.
